Thanks i love that quote i think of it whenever i play pool, and they say rap cant be lyrical
But yeah cotton towel works fine, to keep the shaft from locking up take a little bit of rubbing alcohol on a paper towel and rub down the pin, get inside the metal shaft collar with a Qtip also wet with rubbing alcohol.
It keeps the pin and collar clean of dirt and who knows what else.
Welcome to pool!
I will do just that. Do you think if I used joint protectors, I should still do that? Since the J/Ps would be on it most of the time

Thank you for the kind comments :embarrassed2:
